NPI Engineer

Copello are working with a leading advanced manufacturing organisation to recruit NPI Engineers (all levels of experience) for a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility.

This is an exciting opportunity to support the introduction of highly advanced RF and mmWave technologies, helping transition complex products from development and prototype builds into stable, scalable production.

We’re keen to hear from engineers with experience in electronics, automotive, or other high-reliability manufacturing environments. If you’ve worked on introducing new products, improving manufacturing processes, or supporting production readiness, your experience could be a great fit.

This role offers the chance to build on your existing manufacturing knowledge while developing specialist skills in RF and semiconductor technologies.

The Role

As an NPI Engineer, you’ll support the introduction of new products into manufacturing, helping ensure designs move successfully from development into repeatable, efficient production.

You’ll work closely with teams across design, quality, test, and manufacturing to coordinate builds, validate processes, and support production readiness.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Support the introduction of new products into manufacturing
  • Help deliver NPI activities from prototype through to production
  • Coordinate pilot builds and production readiness activities
  • Contribute to DFM / DFA reviews to improve manufacturability
  • Develop and maintain manufacturing documentation, process flows, and control plans
  • Support tooling, fixturing, and process improvement activities
  • Assist with early production builds and ramp-up
  • Analyse production issues and support root-cause investigations
  • Work closely with cross-functional engineering and operations teams

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for engineers with a strong technical mindset and experience working in a manufacturing or production engineering environment.

You may have experience with:

  • NPI, manufacturing engineering, process engineering, or industrialisation
  • Supporting products from development / prototype into production
  • Working in electronics, automotive, semiconductor, or other precision manufacturing environments
  • Structured problem-solving tools such as 8D, FMEA, or similar
  • Manufacturing documentation such as process flows, PFMEA, or control plan
